Program Insurance Providers 

Through this program, we will look to work with several industry-leading Cyber Insurance carriers.   

Coalition: Coalition’s Active Cyber Insurance is coverage designed to prevent digital risk before it strikes. Coalition combines insurance and technology to help organizations identify, mitigate and respond to digital risks like ransomware, funds transfer fraud and more. 

Digital transformation has helped organizations become more efficient and more impactful, but this digital shift has also amplified the impact of digital risks. From ransomware attacks to the challenges of managing distributed workforces during the pandemic, digital risk is different. 

Coalition believes that all businesses should be able to embrace technology and thrive in the digital economy. Every Coalition policyholder has access to comprehensive cyber coverage, the Coalition Control cyber risk management platform, and the ability to request support from our in-house claims and incident response team. 

Beazley: The world of cyber risks doesn’t have to be feared. But you do have to be prepared. Beazley has been a pioneer in cyber risk for over two decades. Through the experience of managing thousands of cyber incidents, they know that organizations with integrated cyber risk management services in place develop stronger resilience and are better able to pre-empt, respond to and adapt to cyber threats. 

Beazley offers a Full Spectrum Cyber solution that incorporates our market-leading Beazley Breach Response (BBR) product and layers in additional protection that helps your customers to pre-empt emerging cyber threats, respond to them and adapt to new threats as they emerge.

Why is this program different? 

By partnering with certified service providers, Brown & Brown can offer carrier customers with a risk profile that is highly rated. Secondly, we work with each provider to understand the needs of their customers and craft proprietary endorsements that cover the risks that matter. 

Brown & Brown is the administrator of the Cyber Insurance Affinity Program. We also act on your behalf as your insurance broker for the Cyber Security line of business. As a licensed Insurance broker, we act on behalf of the customer.  

I have a Broker can they access this program? 

This program is specifically authorized through Brown & Brown and has proprietary pricing and endorsements that are not available to other brokers. Brown & Brown is a full service-broker available to represent you for this line of coverage. 

How do I evaluate my Cyber coverage? What am I covered for? 

Not all Cyber policies are the same; in fact, many include exclusions that could make your company vulnerable should you suffer a breach.   

What is the right amount of coverage for my size firm? 

Ultimately, coverage depends on the size and complexity of your business, the type of information and data you retain or process and the firm’s risk appetite. You can also access a calculator on our Broker Service Platform (BSP).

What is active insurance? 

Active Insurance is coverage designed to help prevent digital risk before it strikes. It combines the power of technology and insurance to provide coverage that is built for the digital economy. This includes monitoring and alerting to identify and prevent risk before it escalates and in-house resources that accelerate response and coverage if an incident occurs. 

Why are you able to offer a special rate to CFGI customers? 

CFGI provides comprehensive monitoring and risk assessment for its customers. CFGI will also provide additional details about their customers’ security protocols, which gives the carrier increased confidence in their cyber posture during the underwriting process.

What happens if I have a breach? 

Carriers in this program offer dedicated, in-house breach support, incident response and cyber claims teams. If you experience a security incident, in-house specialists respond in minutes, not days, to help accelerate your recovery. From threat actor communication and negotiation to remediation support and forensics analysis. 

What do I do if I have a claim? 

Carriers in this program have claims teams that include privacy attorneys and legal professionals who can help you navigate the recovery process, manage breach response vendors, and law enforcement, and help ensure your claim is managed efficiently.
